This hand-painted kimono design, executed on thin paper, is mounted on a page sourced from a book, likely originating from the Kyoto Nishijin textile district. It remains in very good condition. The artwork itself measures approximately 14 inches by 23 inches, mounted on a larger page of about 15 inches by 31 inches (36 cm x 58 cm mounted on 38 cm x 79 cm).

This textile is featured on page 149 of Art Kimono: Aesthetic Revelations of Japan, 1905-1960. This book, published by Yorke Antique Textiles, can be previewed or purchased on our website here.
